(Explained)
The identification of energy usage in a building is a critical first step in knowing how
your energy usage compares to compliance type buildings and energy star rated structures
in your region. It also allows you to develop a strategic approach to reduce energy usage
and consumption through no cost, low cost and capital investments. The analysis allows
prioritization of expenditures to achieve the greatest return on your investment. The
analysis furthermore allows a foundation to be determined for on-going verification
monitoring to assess the effectiveness of the changes and proactively identify problem
areas in the future.
To obtain accurate information on building performance, monitoring equipment is place
throughout the building to capture information and show where opportunities exist to
change the operation of buildings or lease space, whether by way of system change-outs/
upgrades or simple no cost or low cost adjustments that recognizes financial savings
immediately. The data collected will hold different value for each client and SBS will
provide energy saving alternatives for each assessment. SBS facilitates an understanding
of the building operation and analyzes the utility usage and spending options to bring
financial value into every project.
